Printing to a Xerox Document Centre 332 (escape seq.)
We have a Xerox Document Centre 332 on our network. LPD is running on it. I can send print jobs to it from the FBSD boxes, however I get the staircase effect. I cannot find at Xerox, nor Googling the escape sequence required to curtail the staircase effects. Has anyone figured this out? And if so, would you be willing to share the codes? Thank you -- Bob Play is the work of children. It's very serious stuff. And if it's properly structured in a developmental program, children can blossom. -Bob Keeshan aka `Captain Kangaroo' ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't know the escape codes for this printer, but you can work around this by installing a filter on LPD that converts newlines to LFCR. There's got to be 1000 howtos on the 'net on how to do this: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/printing-intro-setup.html#PRINTING-TEXTFILTER You might also just install magicfilter or apsfilter. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But I'd suggest just printing in PostScript, since most larger printers and copiers already have it. Enscript is pretty good for formatting most types of plain text. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

LPRng and ifhp from ports also works well... Ifhp seems to be a good filter ... throw all sortsa files at it and they print just fine.
